I have a good story to tell, but I felt really sick yesterday evening and slept from 4:00 yesterday until just now. Let’s hope that today goes better.
Let’s fill space by …… heck, I don’t know. (My stomach hurts. I can’t think.)

So, we’ve been having these fun nights for a few years now, and I finally wised up. Instead of having the Senior class help with with all three fun night, I had two dozen Seniors doing the first one. Picked a dozen from the Senior class and a dozen from the Junior class for the second fun night (which was Friday last). And will have the Juniors do the third one.
Lather, Rinse and Repeat: I should never have to break in a new class again.
You’d think it wouldn’t take years to think of that.
Let’s talk breakfast.
1. What do you normally eat for breakfast?
2. What would you like to eat for breakfast – say, a big fancy weekend one?
I’ll go first.
1. Generic Honey Nut Cheerios. The gigantic bag costs $4, lasts over two weeks and is apparently good for my heart. I never run out and it’s brainless. Milk, cereal, internet, munch munch munch. (Never mind the milk splatters on the keyboard.)
2. Eggs (scrambled), bacon (crispy), toast (wheat or english muffin bread) with real butter, orange juice, coffee with milk & sugar, and maybe a crispy waffle on the side. Mmmmmmmmm…… Oh, and then some glazed donut holes for second breakfast.

Nine years and five months ago the Civic had 4 miles on it. Now it has some small amount over 200,000 miles. And I did it all wrong. I should have arranged it so that I was in some exotic place like West Point or Sidney, Cairo or York, Hershey or Madrid, Oxford or Peru, Prague or Louisville, Springfield or St. Paul. Anywhere but here:
This is the most boring part of my daily drive. The only saving grace it has is that you can pass people here. It’s only other claim to fame is that Samith hit a deer here in college*.
How many miles are on your car? I’m just curious, not bragging or anything.
*Honestly, I don’t know how that deer got accepted at Concordia in the first place, but its none-to-glorious college career was cut abruptly short that day.

One of these chewy Sprees was delicious (in a very unnaturally-colored/ full-of-chemicals/ my advancing-age-is-preventing-me-from-really-enjoying-it kind of way), and one was not. In fact, one almost cracked one of my teeth when I decided I had taken enough pictures of it. Can you guess which one?
Speaking of weird-shaped candy, one of my favorite things to say when offering someone a chocolate-covered raisin is, “People who eat Raisinets are the bravest people in the world, because you’re just trusting that that’s a raisin in there.”
Let’s share morning routines, shall we? It will be less work for me, more fun for you! Trust me.
Wake-up time:
First thing you do:
Shower before or after breakfast?
Shampoo?
Conditioner?
Soap?
Average time in shower?
Toothpaste flavor:
Hair routine:
Breakfast?
I’ll start: (That will keep the above copy-and-paste-able)
Wake-up time: 5:15
First thing you do: Put on my glasses, which is funny because I wear them for three minutes and then take them off again.
Shower before or after breakfast? Before
Shampoo? J.R. Liggett’s herbal bar shampoo
Conditioner? Pantene
Soap? Dove – the white kind
Average time in shower? 10 minutes (the water’s off & on, though)
Toothpaste flavor: Tom’s mint something, paste – not gel
Hair routine: towel, let sit while I eat & check the web, hair dryer, two squirts of hairspray, then sigh that it doesn’t look better.
Breakfast? Cereal – generic Honey Nut Cheerios (from the giant bag).
